1T DOES NOT PAY.

Verdict Reached by an Earnest Editor
in Dealing with the Temperance Cues
ton.
1t does not pay to have the mother
and children of twenty families dressed
in rags and starved into the semblance
of emaciated scarecrows, and living in
novels, in order that the saloon-keep-
er's wife may dress in satin, and her
children grow fat and hearty, and live
in a bay-window parlor.
1t does not pay to have ten smart in
telligent boys turned into hoodlums
and thieves to enable one man to lead
an easy life by selling them liquor.
1t does not pay to give one man, for
a trife, q license to sell liquor, and
then spend an enormous amount OH the
trial of Tim Mclaughlin for buying that
liquor and then committing murder
under it's influence.
1t does not pay to have one thousand
homes blasted, ruined, defiled and
turned into hells of disorder and mis-
cry, in order that one Wholesale liquor
Q6dlcf may dnldSS fortune.
Idoes not pay to keep six thousand
men III the penitentiaries and hospi-
tails, and one thousand in the lunati0
asylums, at the expense of the honest,
industrious taxpayers, in order that Il
few rich capitalists may grow richer
by the manufacture of whisky.
A saloon-keeper sold drinking man
one pint of new rum, making fifteen
cents clear profit. The man, under the
influence of that pint of rum, killed his
son-in-law; and his apprehension, con-
fnement in jail, execution, ETC., cost
the county more than one thousand
dollars-which temperate men had to
earn by the sweat of their brow. 1t
does not pay!
The loss sustained by society, moral
ly and financially, the sorrow and suf-
fering, the misery and restitution,
produced and augmented, and what is
infinitely a greater consideration than
all else, the destruction Of soul and
body, the inevitable result of using and
traficking in intoxicating liquors
these all attest the truthfulness of the
verdict-it does not pay!
Reader, it does pay to lead temper
ate life; to be an honest and upright
citizen; to exert pure and holy infu
ence upon mankind, and TO honor God
by a righteous use of all His gifts We
beseech you, then, for your own souls
sake, and for the sake of suffering hui
mainly, 'touch not, taste not, handle
not, the unclean thing" - Saratoga
Eagle.

Charming Novelties in New French Tailor

Especial New York Correspondence
Spring is upon as, and Easter novelties
already fill, the shop windows. There APP
pears to be no limit to the immense va
riety of washing materials. The beautiful
designs and artistic finish of some Of the
new French sateens, with their lustrous
surface, quite adapt themselves to replace
satin foulard on many occasions; they are
indeed often used in combination with
surrah taffetas and other softly draping
silks. Over lace skirts, mounted on silk or
plain sateen, and used as polonaises with
graceful additions of lace and ribbons,
they will rank among the smartest demi-
toilets of the coming season.

MRS. LakCI, ina Her Grief aud pes

the Jary.
A great excitement was created in
court ON Wednesday. After dinner,
Col. JAS. w. Brown. foreman OF the
Lakel jury, arose and addressed the
court. stating that piece of paper
had been handed to one of the Jurors
as they had passed out OF the court
room before dinner by Mrs. Lake, the
wife Of tho defendent, but that the
jury had handed the paper unopened
To the sheriff, who had it in his pos.
session. The Court commended the
jury for their good conduct, and or
dered the sheriff Co bring him the
paper. The Judge found, however,
that it was only plying appeal for
mercy from despairing woman for
the liberty Of her husband, and ex-
cused her from the punishment that
otherwise would have been very Sc
we're. This is something that was
never attempted before in this county
and would have been very severely
punished by the Judge had he not
taken pity ON her. The jury all de-
serve credit for the prompt manner
in which they reported the matter,

DEATH PENALTY ~ coREA
Peculiar Manner of Killing Criminals Il
the Oriental Peninsula

The manner Of killing is peculiar and ls
especially obnoxious % the Catholic Chris
tians, who are abundant in this country. Al
ordinary Roman cross Is sat up on huge
cart drawn By oxen. The man is tied 10 this
with arms extended, and he Is thus drawn
through the streets A crier precedes the
procession. announcing the crime for which
the man is being punished HIS friends are
allowed 20 follow and protest his inpocence
and bewail his sad fate, but as tie punish
ment is usually visited upon the family II the
treason has been glaring, the following Of
friends is apt 10 be rather small
There are two places Of execution al the
capital One, seldom used, is in the city.
while the chief place is just outside the west
gate, on hillside, where the immense crowds
upon tbs city wall and other high places can
get a good view Of the interesting sight
Whether the prisoner, IN his exhausted Sate,
has succumbed 10 the torture on the cr0s or
not, on arriving at the place Of executit he
is placed face downward, with his neck upon
block, when, by one stroke, if 1t is q good
one, the heavy sword sewers the head from
the BODY. The hands and feet are then cut
of, and the mutaated body IS carried back
nto the city and laid, chest downward. in
one of the streets, where it must lie for three
days
II is refreshing TO note that the people. and
even the dogs, avoid that street for the time
being, and the adjoining shops are closed.
They count from the evening when the body
is laid out till daylight of the third day, 20
that the body only lies there one day in re-
atty. The foreigners resident in the capital,
during the time following the emeute OF 1854,
when so many political criminals were exc
cuted, often stumbled upon these horrible
sights in their journeyings about the streets
On one occasion when the bodies were near
the legations the Representatives combined
snd asked for their removal.
II should be mentioned that the humane
king is opposed 10 this practice, which custom
seems still TO demand Ia case the accuser
should be proved sn inp3stor and 10 have ac-
cused the man falsely. the prisoner or his
friends have the right 20 demand an eye from
him Their method Of obtaining the organ
Is quite novel, and if well performed II Is
more expeditions than is the modern surgical
method Of eneuclsation. The culprits made
10 stoop over and j. then hit with the loaded
End Of flexible stick upon q spot on the back
II the head, when the eve protrudes sufficiently
20 that IL NAV be cut Of. II. however, the
people who wish the eye are not prompt in
doing the cutting operation, the prisoner may
quickly replace toe eve and possess i there
after in peace, al Of which Is said to have
been done many times. but unfortunately has
DOT been witnessed. as yet, by foreigners. -
